>> Capital Gains?

Yes please! As much of them as possible. :-)

Seriously though: From what I've been able to gather today (spotty at best) there is no current plan to change the rates on long-term gains. I have no idea if the brackets/breakpoints will have to change from the current ones though.

For short term gains, it's less clear to me what will happen, although owing to their higher tax rate compared to long-term gains, it's been speculated that the short-term rates will be lowered somewhat.

Of course, all of this may be changed or bargained away in negotiation. Personally I don't think it's worth trusting what was proposed yet, it'll probably get screwed around with so much we won't recognize it afterward.
